Geno and his agent need to be smart. He just had a bad finish to the season and isn’t getting younger. If we franchise tag geno and then pick a qb at 5 that’s a nightmare scenario for geno knowing we aren’t tied to him. If geno gets franchised and has a year that’s worse than the one he just had he’s gonna be struggling to find a deal any better than what guys like Andy Dalton and bridgewater have been getting. The hawks have all the leverage and can have him back with no long term risk at 30 mill next year and go from there. I honestly don’t see how geno isn’t begging for a 3/4 year deal at 22-26 mill just so he gets paid. So many things can go wrong for geno and his agent if they play hardball and want too much
